明日の夕方、順子夫妻が「セカチュー」からケアンズに来るので、柳の下の1匹目のどじょう・「キミシラ」を読んでいます。ところで日本の書籍のベストセラーは「星の王子様」と「窓際のトットちゃん」が600万部、「ノルウエーの森」450万部に続いて「セカチュー」320万部が第4位とメディア・ミックスだらけ。しかし文学書以外も含めると、細木数子の「六星占術」7000万部と「アンパンマン」5000万部が圧倒的な1位と2位。大手出版社の収入の70%が漫画とは世も末。

The earth rounds while you don’t realize it
Mon. February 15 : fine
As Junko and her husband are coming to Cairns tomorrow evening from “the heart of the world” I’m reading the same writer’s first book, “The earth rounds while you don’t realize it”. By the way, Japanese top selling books are “Le Petit Prince” and “Tot-Chan” with 6M each, “Norwegian Wood” comes next with 4.5M, followed by “Socrates in Love”with 3.2M. Most of them are media- mixed books. Putting all together with non-literature the top selling books “Six Stars’ Horoscope” written by Kazuko Hosoki with 70M and “Ampam-man” with 50M are the top two overwhelmingly. 70% of the income of Japanese big publisher depends on the comic books. The end of world has been approaching.
